I am in uni as a game dev major right now and I agree with >>1869340. My friend is in CS and it's basically a type of math degree, here it isn't even categorized as polytechnic like most computer majors but instead lumped with the rest of the math and science stuff.
The actual game major actually doesn't have much robust programming either, there's a large creative artsy focus and a focus on collaborating in teams. It's a lot about designing a game that's engaging, thinking about the player audience, evaluating the market, etc. rather than the hard coding. If you wanted to come out as a great general programmer you'd have to supplement on your own.
I'm planning on switching majors at some point since I don't envision working in the games industry and want something more general. USA btw

Here are some ideas I had for video streaming services
1) Netflix skip sex scenes (a tool used to identify sex scenes or user submitted)
2) Timestamp/bookmark netflix quotes/parts (a tool used to bookmark scenes/quotes)
I told these to my ex but now we're not dating nor will he ever make it but maybe it can be a project for one of you/find it useful. I can't code so.

I'm >>1869312 , sorry for the late response.
>>1869340
>If you're going into it to make video games I'd recommend studying something else like game development, not CS. Basically 90% of people in my program who went into it with the same goal dropped out because the subjects were too boring for them. Which is fine, but just letting you know.
Oh noooo, that's not the goal. That's just as a side thing I want to do while in college. My wording wasn't the best in the original post, sorry for that. Didn't mean to say >After that
meant to say while in college.
By >"pocket-sized" video game company I meant me and few peeps from college making some vidya for fun, as a project, not something too serious.
Sorry again if I worded things wrongly, I'm ESL lel.
The reason I want to get into Computer Science is because I am truly interested in it. I've always had a passion for the science of computing and just pure math in general. I looked over the timetable and I find every single one of the classes so fascinating. So no, my main goal isn't to make video games, it's just a side quest if I can say so kek. I was just wondering if any of you nonnies experienced something similar, or know someone with similar experiences(making video games for fun/for a project while attending the faculty of CS)
>I blame unwashed males with massive egos and Tiktok girlbosses convincing everyone a degree in CS/CE means instant FAANG job with a big salary.
KEK holy I heard of those, they're pretty idiotic. I hope nobody listens to them though. They're selling lies. And I don't want to see those retards in the halls of the university.

That's not quite true, I've read magazines that talked about how lesbian bars existed and would hook up in the restrooms back in the 80s-00s, but now they've been shut down or rebranded to be inclusive "queer" bars. To include men like OP.

punk is about going against what society says is right and proper. From satanism to nazism to anarcho-communism, it's all fair game. It was fun to see them beat eachother back in the early 2000s (our part of europe is always late to changes, somehow punks survived that long)

I'm leaving bc I'm sick of indulging my worst impulses, gawking at shitty or weird people, and wasting time judging when I could be doing something much better with my time if I had less of a cruel and critical character that needs to judge others in order to feel better about my own inadequacies. I want to make art and be a positive influence in other people's lives rather than someone who gossips, starts pointless arguments online and is an anonymous, sadistic energy vampire. I want to stop self-sabotaging my chances at happiness because I'm depressed and think the world is filled with horrific shit due to excessively doomscrolling and repeatedly seeking out content that confirms my worst trauma-based fears. I judge and bully others because I absolutely fucking hate the choices I make and I'm too emotionally retarded to start acting like a decent person. I've lost so much precious time doing this shit, and I don't want to be a miserable crab in the bucket that is lolcow anymore. I want to try to be a decent person for once, even though that's unknown territory to me. It's enough, I need to stop spewing the pain I've gone through onto the world and start trying to help others and improve things instead. To anyone considering doing the same: I hope you make it. Goodbye you big, black, beautiful women

You probably won't see this (or at least I hope you won't because that would mean you've returned) but it feels like I could've written this post. I am stuck in this vicious cycle where I come here -> waste hours of my day -> don't make any life progress -> feel like shit because of it -> come here to either vent about it or escape my mess of a life at least for a bit -> repeat. Maybe my main problem is extreme procrastination and lack of discipline in general and the lolcow addiction is just a symptom, not the actual issue, but I still want to quit because for me the negatives of lolcow outweigh its positives by a huge margin. Here it's so easy to stumble on something that will anger me, be it troons or redditards or nitpicking or another unnecessary infight. I'm also not too fond of the moderation during the last few months, I've seen way too many posts get redtexted for the dumbest reasons but I won't open that can of worms. I also gotta admit this is not my first post in this thread, I've tried leaving a few times before but I always end up coming back. This time I need to make even bigger effort because having a nice life is something you need to work very hard for and wasting precious time doomscrolling an imageboard is the last way to achieve that kek. I'm very thankful to all the kind and helpful nonnas (especially in /g/ and /ot/) who offered me their advice and compassion when I was at my lowest, I'll really miss you all but I have to leave this place once and for all for my own good.
Fare you well and I wish you all wonderful lives ahead!

kek that's exactly it. On the other hand nowadays in my European country it's more and more trendy for young couples to go to the imam, have him saying some retarded shit in Arabic in exchange for a few euros and then the couple pretends they're actually married and they act like it so they're confused when they get in trouble with the law for wrongly paying taxes or asking for benefits that only go to single mothers, etc. Meanwhile the previous generation did the exact reverse, married random guys to get laid, would then be separated and wonder why they still have to pay their husband's debts, bills or taxes if said husband refuses to may or simply can't after that, so I'm gonna assume the younger ones just didn't learn a fucking thing from that.

That’s why I am still sympathetic to communism despite its flaws. It’s one of the few political tools that create mass literacy and elevate women out of the broodmare position. Imagine if Muslim countries could effectively nationalize and use their own resources for themselves.

I think this is why Islam caught on with modern leftists after the collapse of the Soviet Union. It helped create a powerful push against American dominance and attempted divinity after being colonized

in my experience people sometimes really don't understand that the bare minimum is too much for someone. there was a time in my life where i had to choose between buying groceries or going to class later because just carrying a tote full of food for the next 3 days was too much for me and would make me sleep for the rest of the day. i just didn't have the energy for both and a lot of people just didn't get that. but i used to be mutuals with spoonies on tumblr and they would have these spoon graphics embedded in their tumblr layout and every day they edited the spoons to match their spoon level. like jfc. if you can mess around with html so the spoons accurately represent your energy level, you can do the one annoying thing you've been putting off for weeks.

I hate it so much. I do have a very limiting condition. I went to a therapist (who was actually great for once) and one day she explained the spoon theory to me as a way to stop beating myself up for my daily failures. Inside I raged. But she meant well and I pretended it was a fantastic analogy as to not hurt her feelings, because the rage I felt was straight up unjust. But my god I HATE spoony spoon people

Wanted to bump this thread.
Any disabled nonnas deal with CBT being pushed as a treatment for your physical disability? Does it actually help you, or do you think the industry behind it is gaslighting with extra steps?
I read this article recently and it got me thinking. https://disabilityvisibilityproject.com/2021/11/11/how-cbt-harmed-me-the-interview-that-the-new-york-times-erased/

I've seen no benefit personally but then again I wonder if it's just because I'm a negative bitch and can't think positively enough

I already hate CBT out of principle and felt it was terrible for my mental health, so I can't imagine it being helpful for my physical health. I don't even see how it possibly could be for anyone except if your physical disability is heavily related to your mental state.

>>1928401
I also hate it, for both. My disability has no treatment and it's rare so all the research funding goes into CBT and coping strategies since they can't figure the rest out. Part of me thinks that maybe eventually it can calm down my nervous system and help sort of that way but the fact there's no real research sucks. The CBT industry controls so many chronic illnesses and disabilities

The first time I did them I did 4-5 and was high for a day and a half, it was the weirdest trip I've been on and yet I barely recall specifics. The one I took today was"legal" (my own bans weed so someone drove it across state lines for me) 10% thc and this motherfucker is strong, only because I think I've lost my tolerance after having no weed since like 2021. It's nice but it has been a very long time since I've had a ganja trip and my mind is straying into weird and funny corners

I watched two movies, in the span of four hours ate 1/2 a bag of cheese puffs, ate two bowls of lays, ate two york mint patties alongside two dark chocolate squares, and lastly ate an entire Italian meal and drank a large tea with a piss pot of a lot of water in between. If I got high all the time I'd be a fucking lardass. I'm also having deep thoughts on what I want to do with my creative endeavors and my ideas are better than when I'm sober. Shut up brain
